Description

A tenderly illustrated adaptation invites the smallest listeners into a world of colour and rhyme, turning Lewis Carroll’s classic into a soothing bedtime experience. The pages are filled with gentle, nursery‑rhythm verses and vivid drawings that capture a child’s imagination, making it perfect for a mother’s voice to read aloud or for a child to explore on their own. Every illustration is designed to be simple enough for tiny hands to turn, yet rich enough to spark wonder.

The story opens with a sleepy little girl named Alice who drifts into a curious dream. A hurried White Rabbit, oddly dressed with a pocket watch, scurries past, muttering about being late, and Alice, full of inquisitiveness, follows it straight down a deep, endless rabbit‑hole. As she falls, the narrative swirls with gentle humor and soft suspense, inviting listeners to imagine an adventure that begins with a simple, magical tumble.

About the author

Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll

1832–1898

Best known for creating Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, this English writer mixed playful nonsense with the sharp mind of a mathematician. The result is work that still feels surprising, witty, and wonderfully strange.
